I misspoke.  I meant only that clicking the label should operate the same as
clicking the checkbox.  I didn't mean to imply that it is common practice to have
the label in a separate control.

Got it.  I had shrunk the size of the checkbox to the point where it was just
barely visible within the size of the control.  When I expanded the size, the
label showed up and its behaviour is as expected.

There is a part of me that is just a bit queasy about my codebase at the moment,
because there is something in there that is not operating as expected.  I'll take
a snapshot of this before I fix things and at least be able to call this back up
to experiment.

But, for now, it is on to the next issue.

Thanks
